My spiritual journey has been going OK, ups and downs. I have been meditating twice per day, I think in the past several weeks I only missed 1 session (due to being extremely tired and falling asleep). This is a level of consistency I've never maintained before. And I've been staying sober...

I feel like I've advanced more spiritually in the last month then in the 2 years preceding it. For years I had plenty of alone time, but I kept putting off meditation while waiting for the "perfect" time, which of course never came. Living in a group home isn't ideal, there are plenty of people...

Thank you very much High Priest. I am staying sober, and doing somewhat better with my thoughts. Trying not to be quite as negative and to complain less, the most recent sermon was very enlightening. I hope you are blessed forever for all of your work.

I personally think that a lot of people's sensitivity regarding this issue stems from our social backgrounds. Many of us were previously excluded by "mainstream" people and were talked over/put down because our ideas didn't perfectly sync with social norms. Just keep in mind that this is not...

I am personally glad...I've been undergoing some very rapid personal changes myself, I really feel like I need to get rid of personal stuff that could obstruct my spiritual path. I've always cared deeply for this Place, but I've had a lot of problems in my life so my posts haven't always...

I hate being sober so much, I am tired of being strangled by fear, self-hatred, and despair. My life is still incomprehensibly FUBAR. I continue to meditate twice a day, but it feels like each session is a reminder of my spiritual failings. I could maybe push through the suffering if I knew...

I've been interested in academic Philosophy for years, and I can't overstate how brilliant the Advanced Zevist Philosophy section is. For a Philosophy to be able to not just raise questions but provide answers, to concord deeply with innermost feelings, to make one feel less confused rather than...

"Nights dark beyond darkness and the days more gray each one that what had gone before. Like the onset of some cold glaucoma dimming away the world."

Thank you for this High Priest, and for showing your concern for us who struggle with such things, as many stuck in addiction can feel worthless and unworthy of help. In my case I was blessed to receive professional help (im currently in a good residential place), which I needed, for the damage...

What is the best way to channel Folkish instincts given the new understanding? I agree fully with the Clergy and trust them, they've never steered us in a bad path and have continously blessed us with wisdom and truth. I get it that hatred and political conflict is not the way, but I'm still...

Not that I disagree with that conclusion, lel

This thread proves that normies find the concept of a non-normie being lovable to someone metaphysically impossible, lol

Thank you HP for explaining things so patiently. While the updates make rational sense to me (and also seem to concord with my soul in a very harmonious, peaceful way), I sometimes struggle on the emotional side. Not saying these are rational fears, but my brain wonders "what if the updates are...

I've been very isolated my whole life but I'm hoping I'm a rare case and am meant to be this way. Right now I have very little social drive and I really hope being sober doesn't ruin that. If I had to go through all that rejection again, I think I'd go crazy. Don't take my example too seriously...

I hope its appropriate for me to use my status for this, please delete if it isn't. My journey re: sobriety is still going pretty well. Quitting weed was really hard, I was super depressed for a few days, but I really needed to quit. I can feel my focus gradually returning, and I continue with...

OK thank you both for the replies and encouragement. I am going to keep working hard and trying to take things day by day. It helps a lot to have access to a strong spiritual community like this one.

Just adding that, while I seek clarification on the matter, I will defer to the Gods' stance regardless of what it is.

These past couple days have been very mentally exhausting but productive. I've done a ton of meetings/networking related to sobriety. I've resumed meditation and am studying the site a lot more than I used to. The new updates make perfect sense and our High Priest put a ton of work into...

Sorry, I'm not quitting, just super depressed over my financial situation, which by itself could push someone to the edge, plus I'm dealing with all these other issues. I know it takes time and strength is required, but it's disheartening to feel tired and sick for so long.

Sorry for sperging out, I'm just super depressed and sleep deprived. I'm not giving up, but unfortunately this is just a super difficult part of my life. But I recently resumed meditation and study, I may add to it soon. Idk if anything will work out in the end, but I guess I need to try

Thank you very much High Priest, for your kindness and everything you do. I wouldn't have expected to grow in such a way given my past, but the evolved understanding and recent clarifications make perfect sense to me. I know I messed up, but I still remember your kindness and wisdom, and I look...

Just another small update I felt like sharing if its ok...today was a rough day, but not without merit. My anxiety was off the charts, and my stomach felt awful. I vomited so hard my ears felt like they would explode. But I had an important realization: I don't want to be a junkie blowing all my...

Thanks again for the replies and to the mods 4 help w my account. I have to get off subs and weed now so I can be fully sober and enter treatment. Grrrh life still sucks, sub withdrawal is awful, i know i need to get treatment and will but right now it is hard to feel anything but negatives like...

Thank you very much High Priestess. Regarding Yoga, that is a good idea, I hope to start a basic routine soon. Thank you also to everyone for your replies, even if I didn't respond directly I continue to read and think it over. Today was still tough but went OK. Just went to a lot of meetings...

I am very glad you were wise enough to know to avoid that poison, Brother, I hope people follow your example.

Just a Lil update...I'm still alive technically and physically safe, not homeless or in an institution, and I've stayed away from painkillers for over 3 weeks, although I take prescribed suboxone, will switch to the shot then get off that later. Just still in a lot of pain, very sick and...

Brother how did you know about the tunnel metaphor/experience I had when I was close to death...for the first time in my life, I am nearly speechless. Thank you.

I agree.. I am getting very strong feelings that it is very important now to be open and follow the Gods. I saw really clearly that I needed to change. And maybe some random black guy who suffers under the system just like me doesn't need to be my enemy. Maybe I don't have to be so afraid of...

Just one last thing (mods please disapprove if I'm wrong): is it true we've evolved somewhat on race matters? Maybe that's good, while I love my People very much, maybe my focus on extremist politics wasn't helping decent normal White people. Maybe what matters is that people may come to...

Thank you so much everyone...really cringing at the drama lol, I'm sorry for causing it. I apologized to the Gods for my errors, and am resolved to better my life...just got a very traumatic wake up call. Trying to go slow, really want to be better but in lots of pain. Getting help though, and...

Apologies for last post, I went to lds service n remembered I h8 abrahamic religion. My ego is barely starting to grow back, fell for the trauma based mind control

I guess I should provide an update on this post lol. In the past couple months, I quit my one job due to my health issues. I then lost my other job, that I've had for 7 years, and my life has totally fallen apart. Afterwards, i got some fentanyl and overdosed, paramedics gave me 2 Narcan and a...

Thank you very much High Priest, talking to you always makes me feel stronger and hopeful, like a bit of your Virtue rubs off. I know what I need to do and will keep moving forward, and I'm sorry again for what I said, truly I do not want to ever leave the Company of our Gods. I'm just so...

Thank you to everyone who replied, even if I haven't responded directly I am still looking over your posts and appreciating the meaning. I'm really sorry I suck so much...I just have been suffering in silence for a while, and I got pushed over the edge (of course, I understand now that this...

I'm very sorry HP...I don't mean to say anything bad about the Temple...I've just been spiraling with paranoia and negative thoughts, all the abuse I received previously [from people outside of the Temple]. I keep getting obsessive thoughts that someone from here is going to curse me and destroy...

It's not important, and people won't care, but for purposes of closure I wanted to post this. As of tomorrow I will no longer consider myself a member of the Temple. I have no malice towards anyone here, and certainly no wish to oppose you or your mission, but I can't consider myself a true...

Regardless of what they say, the strong majority of women don't want a virgin man. If they did, men wouldn't claim more bodies than they have. A ton of men are virgins now, if women wanted them they'd be easy to find. But past a certain point, if a man is a virgin into adulthood, it becomes...

I don't want to speak for anyone else, but my personal reading of the posts was that no one was justifying the situation, just expressing doubt about the veracity of the OP by pointing out an inconsistent attitude towards infidelity. It's like if I made a post about wanting to rob someone else's...

Just a reminder, be careful with photos due to embedded data and other op sec concerns.

Quite a few ethnic Germans live in Russia, just throwing that out there.

As predicted, this poster in question couldn't even last one day before yet again spewing garbage after another "apology". Based on the idiolect it appears likely it has created yet another account. Just stop giving it any attention. Anyone who is truly sorry can go do the necessary work and...

Do you mean benzodiazepines? Not medical advice, but personally I am STRONGLY AGAINST benzodiazepines. They are one of the most horribly addictive drugs out there, withdrawal can be fatal without proper medical care. Plus they can wreak havoc on brain chemistry. Prescribing such for anxiety is...

Threatening suicide if someone doesn't do what they want is a textbook manipulation behavior, though, people who do it often have serious personality disorders and can be dangerous.

Thank you High Priest! That makes sense to me.

For a while, after my last Ritual for the day, I wait around 10 minutes then clean my aura and do AoP. Recently concerns about conflicting energy popped into my head, though, and I wanted to make sure it was ok to do AoP relatively soon after an Ritual, would there be any concerns with...

Isn't the word "cosmetics" derived from the Greek word for cosmos, or world? So proper cosmetics and beautification would be a way of expressing the natural patterns of the cosmos.

If it's ok with you, please don't feel any need to issue me a refund (I did a natal chart order around 04/13/2020 under the pseudonym Robert Smith, I had emailed about this order before but am not sure if I got the addresses right). I'm not hurting for money and I've benefited a lot from your...

Thank you all for your responses, I appreciate your input. I will try to get rid of them in the most efficient way with no excess cruelty. I don't want the mouse droppings in the house to make anyone sick. But I also don't like to be flippant with the taking of any animal life even when...

Is it ethical to exterminate mice living in one's house to avoid disease? Some family members had mice in their house and wanted help and I was wondering about it. I would prefer they use live traps but I guess they want to be certain they get them all out.

I think we should do all 3 parts everytime, if possible.

Self-hypnosis is one thing, but I would avoid allowing others to hypnotize you or using hypnotic audios made by someone other than yourself: https://www.templeofzeus.org/TheMind.html

Just be careful not to click on a Google drive link if you're signed into a Google/gmail account as it can be tracked in a log.

Is it recommended that people wait until their at an intermediate level to do a Munka working, so as to not remove Karma that might be beneficial?

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/04/16/ron-johnson-joe-biden-trying-to-remake-demographics-of-america-with-mass-immigration-policies/ Not as explicit as Tucker, Johnson is a politician after all. But it's still a good sign that people are starting to call out the obvious.

Is it safe to take supplemental melatonin? I thought it could make it harder to produce it naturally.

So is the PayPal link on the main site no good, or does it work for the time being? I know you are extremely busy, HP, but please do let us know if a new way to donate becomes available, I am always glad when I can donate.

Be careful if you're putting pictures of your face on the Internet, I wouldn't recommend it.

If you have a "smart" phone you can also use that to do the Ritual, you can also print it off, use the pdf version then delete the file each time instead of using the webpage and closing it, etc., there are lots of things that can work if getting a new computer takes time.

Be careful who you give your natal chart information to, I would not trust any astrologer other than Lydia or HP Zevios Metathronos, or another one that's verified on the forums.

I would recommend avoiding mental health practitioners, it can be very dangerous to tell them information on your life. In addition to what others have said, keep in mind that you were fortunate enough to find the JoS in this lifetime. Don't waste this life by throwing it away. As hard as life...

Thanks for the information, I apologize if I confused anyone, I have limited knowledge and sometimes forget what the rest of a topic says, just didn't want anyone to get hurt by misapplying information, I don't mean to spread disinformation.

HPS Pythia has warned against doing 108 vibrations: https://ancient-forums.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=18092&p=69365&hilit=108#p69365

Just a heads up, HPS Pythia has said not to use 108 vibrations: https://ancient-forums.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=18092&p=69365&hilit=108#p69365

Just a heads up, the JoS site has warned against allowing others to hypnotize you, I personally would avoid hypnosis audios made by others as there can be hidden things in them:

Both HPS Pythia and Lydia have stated that you can improve focus just by focusing very closely on what you're doing throughout the day, I have found this to be very helpful. While you're going about your day, doing chores, etc., try to focus completely on what you're doing and ignore errant...

Just be careful not to take too much if taking supplemental iodine.

Regarding the post in your signature, are you sure it's a good idea to add an affirmation to the Final Ritual? The clergy have instructed that it should just be done as it appears on official JoS sites.

Just to clarify, "4-5 of those is close to 8-9", you mean multiples if 9, right? So in that method 36-45 would be close to 72-81?

My dog, who is fairly old but in mostly good health, has had a small bump on his eye for a while. Recently, it has been irritating the eye and causing a lot of discharge. We've tried treating the discharge, but the vet said that as long as the bump is there it will be a problem, and that a...

Hasn't it been advised that some of the exercises in that book are corrupted and dangerous? I would be very cautious, especially considering that the meditations on the JoS are powerful enough for tremendous advancement.

I've mentioned this before, but I wanted to share this tip for doing Rituals in case it could be helpful. If you live with people, it's important to make sure you are safe while getting the Rituals done. You can do both. Some people have mentioned using music so that others don't hear, but for...

Thank you, that answer makes a lot of sense.

I'm not sure I understand, it doesn't seem that void needs to be mastered perfectly before doing any other type of meditation, right? I've had some success feeling energy even though my concentration is far from perfect. Although I agree that void meditation is still very important.

Just a heads up so others are aware, it's best in my opinion to not listen to hypnotic audios as the people who make the audios can hide things in them that could be harmful.

I believe it has been said that we should never let ourselves by hypnotized by others, I assume this would apply for audios made by other people as we don't really know what's in them.

I'm not sure if this "saint" has historically been considered the patron saint of pandemics, that may be misinformation or regular Xian rewriting of history. But anyway, some Xians are now literally praying to this so-called saint, who in their stories is supposedly linked to Northern Italy...

Thoughts on this press release? https://media.defense.gov/2020/Jan/14/2002234275/-1/-1/0/CSA-WINDOWS-10-CRYPT-LIB-20190114.PDF

Great, thank you HP! I figured the billing address was just a formality since I used a preloaded card with enough funds but just wanted to make sure. I did get the email confirming my donation. I have been wanting to donate for a while but couldn't due to family being entangled with my financial...

Earlier today I donated to the JoS using a prepaid credit card. I had to give a billing address for PayPal and wanted to ask, JoS won't mail anything to my home address, correct? I wouldn't think that they would but just wanted to make sure.

How many women are killed by promiscuous, low impulse-control men, or killed by boyfriends or partners, compared to the number of women killed by autistics who can't leave the basement without having a panic attack? Not saying some incels aren't bad people, but this obsession with the fictitious...

The major bad decisions in my life resulted, at least in part, from a lack of spiritual understanding. If you're not 100% sure about this (and very few of us are 100% sure of our decisions most of the time, even if we convince ourselves otherwise), why not continue to meditate and advance and...

HPS Pythia warned that many people are treated poorly in the military. If you do decide, make sure to protect yourself. If you have astrological skill in military things, you could possibly use this to get into a powerful position in the military or something else like a police force.

Welcome, and congratulations on being brave enough to seek the truth. The forum is a great resource for questions, continue to study the JoS sites for yourself and feel free to ask questions should they come up. Dedicating to Satan has been the best thing I've ever done with my life, and I...

Thank you very much for your reply, HP (and for everyone else's.) A few minutes ago I was informed that this family member had died, I knelt down and asked Satan to help them reincarnate if He saw fit, then just checked and saw your post now. I try to avoid directly asking for help if I can...

Sorry to double post. I have already asked Satan respectfully for help with this, I felt a positive energy while doing so and I mentioned my intention of working to repay this favor. I'm just not sure if anything else is necessary

Thanks for the replies. This family member is quite old and I just want them to be able to reincarnate safely. I lack many of the props for a formal ritual and live with my family so I dont have much privacy. Could I still do a ritual, and does the astrological timing of a ritual like this matter?

A family member of mine may be dying. What is appropriate to do in this situation? I asked Satan to, if He wills, guide their soul, but I'm not sure if anything else is appropriate, like a more formal ritual, or if that's unnecessary.

Do not give someone your natal chart information, it is not safe (unless you give it to HP Zevios Metathronos or Lydia, as they are legitimate). Some people lurk here trying to find ways to harm Satanists, don't trust a random person who emails you.

I would stay away from medications and things like laser surgery as they are unnecessarily risky for cosmetic issues. Others have pointed out some good recommendations, done consistently it should work great :)

I'll test this for myself if people don't know, but does the donation on the JoS site work with prepaid credit cards? I currently can't donate through my regular card as my parents have access to the bill, but I think I could safely load a prepaid card with cash and use that. I've been wanting...

Obviously doing it for all three days (assuming we can do it in the day, not just the night) is best, but if someone misses a day is it still good to do it the other two days?

Thank you all for your responses. I have noticed that I can better limit my use if I only drink it in the morning. I intend to try to stick to one container (a larger one since I am just starting to cut down now) in the morning and avoid using it in the afternoon and evening. I also think this...

Recently I have realized that I have been using way too much caffeine. It didn't use to be as big of a problem for me, but I think I need to really cut back for health reasons as I am sometimes drinking over ten cups of coffee a day. Would it be best to quit cold turkey or taper down? Also, what...

Don't forget to use an affirmation to direct energy that's raised, and make sure the affirmation has a qualifier like "...in a very positive and happy way for me". Energy that's raised but not directed can bring up effects of negative karma, as HPS Pythia has pointed out.

You have access to priceless spiritual information at the JoS that the vast majority of humanity does not. You can use that knowledge to empower yourself and help save the world. There is no reason to risk doing drugs, even once, for meaningless or delusional information/disinformation.

Don't forget that electrolytes are also important in hydration, if you're deficient in them you need to make sure you're balancing water and electrolytes properly.

A woman like this is willing to ruin a man's life if he tries to leave. She could have easily accused him of raping her and gotten him arrested, even if he would manage to clear his name it could still be very harmful. I don't see what being "alpha" and puffing one's chest out would do if the...

If you try any enlargement methods, be careful. Stretching and things like pumps can be very dangerous. It would be better to just do energy work or something similar to get better at sex. That way you don't need to risk losing functionality, which has happened to some people who tried various...

Looking at your chart is a good way to understand what careers you'll be good at. If you're naturally good at something, you're more likely to enjoy it, and make money off of it. Regardless of what you choose, building good studying habits is essential, of course. As Satanists, we can create...

Thank you all for your replies :) A lot of good food for thought there. I guess what I'm looking for is not an ascetic life but an effective one, a life where I'm minimizing wasted time and energy and doing the best I can to get my goals. Right now I am developing a career, it's a type of...

Those are good points. I should probably just focus on practical advancement right now than worry about drastic lifestyle changes. And it does seem now that a lot of people focus on asceticism because they don't know anything else. I just get frustrated because I wish I could advance much...

Thank you for your reply, HP. I am not a Xian and I'm not considering doing some thing where I give things up for the sake of giving them up. What I would like to do is just a type of "functional" seclusion, for the goal of practically obtaining power. I just feel like I have so much nonsense...

As the title says, I am interested in the proper Satanic perspective on these. Lately I have been feeling drawn to retreating from modern life as best as I am able to focus completely on my advancement. Is there any value towards feeling drawn towards a simple life which focuses on gaining...

Another example of the dangers of store-bought pet food: https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2019/02/05/dog-food-recall-hills-pet-nutrition-vitamin-d-levels-may-toxic/2775371002/

Pasta sauce can sometimes contain things like garlic that are not good for dogs, and the green parts of tomatoes can be poisonous too. It's a good idea to run ingredients through a search engine if you're feeding dogs human food, sometimes foods have things in them that are surprisingly...

Thank you, comrade. I have noticed that somewhat with smoking, I started to really not enjoy smoking and was irritated by it. I quit and haven't smoked in a few months. Hopefully I can do something similar with alcohol. I wish you well on your sobriety too.

I have a question concerning drugs and advancement. I'm aware that I definitely might be in the wrong here, but I thought I'd ask anyway. I should note that I'm definitely not advocating drugs and I am not trying to come across as disrespectful towards spiritual advancement at all. But I have...

It can be dangerous to give your natal chart information to a person online. Lydia and HP Zevios are trustworthy of course, but if someone else says that they can help you interpret it, I would not recommend giving it to them as people can disguise who they are online, and there are people here...

Thanks for your reply, I try of course to honor Satanic symbols, but there are a lot of symbols out there that, while originally Satanic, probably aren't quite the same.

I have a question that's been bothering me for a while, Obviously Satanic symbols should always be treated with respect and should not be thrown in the trash, left on the ground, etc. My question is, what about symbols that are technically Satanic in nature, but in a less direct way? This time...

I used to do a fair amount of fishing and I no longer do. At first, I thought that fish are unable to feel pain, and that catch and release fishing is mostly harmless and fishing is not an inhumane method of food procurement. I now believe that fish are able to feel pain and that fishing with a...

While cleaning your aura, you can also focus on the feel of the energy even if you aren't visualizing perfectly yet. Remember to relax and be confident in your own abilities to meditate, and have fun. Don't tell yourself that you can't meditate. I often find it easier to visualize if I don't...

Some people recommend waiting around 15 minutes after doing an Ritual before cleaning your aura, however I don't think this is necessary.

I believe he means that he is not bothered by not having a relationship with a human girl, not that his Succubus relationship is meaningless.

Just remember to be very careful when creating an affirmation and include something like "in a very positive and happy way for me" in it.

Thank you all for the additional information :)

Thank you all for your advice :) Eating more vegetables and healthy stuff seems to work, as does watching my caffeine intake to avoid sudden fluctuations in hunger. I have also been trying to be more mindful when I eat, and chew my food slowly. It makes it more difficult to wolf down a bunch of...

Does anyone know of a reliable, safe way to suppress appetite? A spiritual method, mental method, herb, etc. I am overweight and I want to lose weight. I really dislike exercising (although I am open to doing some of it) and my diet is bad, I'm in the process of changing that though. I'm good...

I would not recommend trying to kiss or romantically touch a woman without her consent, especially a coworker.

Don't focus on a war happening, just focus on doing the Ritual and be sure that we will win.

Are there certain meditations that shouldn't be done during pregnancy, due to safety concerns? Could one of the HPs weigh in on this?

Be careful with how you handle your parents. In some cases, being aggressive makes the situation worse. Try to understand how they think and then carefully base your plan on that. Even though it's difficult to hide emotions, it might be a good idea to convince them you're getting better while...

It's been said before, but just to be safe, make sure that you use "in a very positive and happy way for me" or something similar when creating an affirmation.

Keep fighting and we can avoid it. Keep up with the Ritual schedule (as of today, October 10, 2018, we are doing the Final Ritual, so focus on that one. You probably know this, just making sure.)

Thank you for your reply, Lydia. That is thought provoking and makes sense :)

Thanks for your feedback, HP, I appreciate the understanding with which you approach sensitive topics. I don't even think I have a problem with being alone, I notice that my singleness really only bothers me if other things in my life aren't going well, like I want a partner in order to dull the...

I've never seen any indication that the men I grew up around have any type of MGTOW beliefs, they seem to just have very normal views on women. And for the people saying stuff like "well, just man up and become the type of man women like"...I am not willing to fundamentally alter my...

I don't think its necessarily misogynistic or dismissive of individuality to think that there are certain trends and generalities in how women behave. Just as men have certain general psychological traits, women can have general traits to. A group can be composed of a lot of different...

Even introducing people to certain topics without mentioning the JoS can be dangerous. They might research it and stumble across the JoS, and if they already suspect you might be a Satanist, they might put two and two together. I agree with the others, better safe than sorry. As someone who is...

It might be nothing, but there's an Internet meme titled "gamers rise up" which generally juxtaposes edgy gamer quotes next to photos of the Joker or stuff like that. I think I saw a photo of some display for the recent gaming convention that depicted a photo of the Joker right in the center.

People saying things about how women behave in general or how men behave in general are often just making observations about differences in behavior. Many men have went out in the world thinking all women are perfect creatures who exude happiness and sunshine and have gotten a harsh awakening...

A lot of you already know this, but I wanted to post a reminder in case some didn't. If you upload pictures to the web, it's a very good idea to make sure you strip the EXIF data and any other metadata which could be used to tell the GPS location of the picture. Also, even something as...

I'm not sure, but I think that a lot of those characteristics are linked to specific genes, not just testosterone level. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a lot of masculine men with high testosterone who don't have much body hair because the specific genes for body hair aren't present in...

Thank you for reposting this, Lydia, this is a very informative guide and it will help a lot of people. I have a question I've been wondering about-it seems that much spiritual advancement depends on an initial "buy-in" that one is, at least on some level, worthy of spiritual advancement and a...
